tushanshu | four ☂ video ☁ alright don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy

[ When the feed comes on, Isaac is giving as close a smile as he can. He's not a grinning guy, so it's somewhere between a smirk and a genuine smile. He's also back in his own body. It's a good week. ]

Question. Is anyone sick of having to be in one place to check messages and send them? I don't know about you guys, but I miss phones. And texting. Texting made everything so easy. [ Not to mention, it kept people safe. Instantaneous danger alert, natch. ] Anybody able to come up with some sort of phone prototype? I'd ask if magic can convert a phone or something - cause there's magic here - but, mine is still in the cradle of the car I was driving. So, I want the next best thing. I'd even say some sort of weird telepathy thing could be cool but nobody should be inside my mind. And I don't care what you're all thinking.

[ Also, gross, being inside someone's mind. Switching gears. ]

Also. I feel like my circle of social interaction is limited. No offense to people from Beacon Hills, but I'm used to the small town high school atmosphere. Even being infamous was better than this. So, I'm looking for some friends. I have one really, [ A beat as he considers this ] really good friend. [ Because, what is he going to define right now? ] And I think I had a friend who I pissed off and then there's Erica but there should be more, right? That's what being a teenager is about? Friends and stuff? Since I can't go to school, I want the school experience.

Also, sports. I play lacrosse - if anybody knows what I'm talking about. And thanks to gym class, I've played everything from badminton (no) to basketball (sure, I'm tall) - anybody into organizing something? I even ran cross-country. So, finding some guys to run with. Could be cool.

[ He has all this excess energy, sue him. ]

Also - parties. Specifically, raves? Clubs? Anything like that here?

[ 30% hackable - Stiles Stilinski

We should talk. Catch up. I uh - I got something for you last week.

[ 30% hackable - Scott McCall

I know I called you a friend. You're like my best friend. I also know we've crossed into, you know, more territory. I just - don't know what you thought about me being full disclosure. I can get back on the network and shout it to the rooftops. I've just never been that guy. Or, had the chance to be. Anyway, uh, yeah. [ He blushes and looks away. ] Yeah.

[ 30% hackable - Erica Reyes

We're overdue for catch up. And I need to tell you something.

[ end hacks

[ And then, he turns the camera back onto the public feed. ]

I know why we were brought here and the name we can't say and all but, am I the only person who thinks this place doesn't suck? Discuss.

[She smiles juuuust a bit.]

I'm Rapunzel. Um...you wouldn't happen to know Stiles, would you? [He had mentioned an Issac, hadn't he?]

[ ... ]

Yeah. We're in some of the same classes. [ And he's Scott's best friend, whom he's currently feuding with. Not that he and Scott have a title. ]

Well, it's nice to actually meet you. He mentioned you and a few others to me before.

You too. How do you know Stiles?

Oh! [She only blushes a little.]

He helped me with the different things in the kitchen of my suite. I'd never seen an over like it before, or that strange microwave thing...

So he helped me with those and he's shown me around a few times. For dinner.

For dinner? Like, places to eat or...

Yes. [Because what else was there?]

We went to this place that served these delicious noodles and you have to eat them with these funny sticks. [She mimes holding a pair of chopsticks.] And there were these buns for dessert with some kind of bean paste?

All right, Stiles.

[ Good job. You went on a date with Stiles. He's hushing the side of him that feels bad for you. ]

Cool. Which sector was that in?

He picked a really great place. I never would have thought of food like that before.

It was in the Earth sector.

I live in Fire. Which do you live in?

[ The gears in his head aren't turning, no. He's not keeping all this information for a reason. ]

Wood. I guess Stiles said my suite is near the suite of another friend? I can't remember the name...another S one, I think?

Scott. You live near Scott. [ Iiiinteresting. ] He's also my friend. [ Trying not to sound possessive. ]

I haven't met him yet, but I'm sure if he's friends with Stiles, [she pauses.] And with you, of course, then he must be nice.

Scott's really nice. He's the nicest guy I know. He's selfless. And not in the usual, throwaround way people say it. He really is.

I'm looking forward to meeting him, then. [She smiles. It's clear from conversations from both Issac and Stiles that Scott is an admirable person who's friends really care about him.]

If you hang around Stiles, you'll meet Scott. [ Sooner rather than later. ] So, when'd Stiles take you to dinner?

A little over a week ago. [She tilts her head curiously.] Why?

Just wondering. [ He didn't mention anything. Or, Scott didn't. Not that either one would. ] Sorry. Done asking questions.

It's alright. I don't mind.

I...tend to ask a lot of questions too. [She twirls her hair around her hand again.]

Do you have any? [ Maybe he can help with Stiles. ]

[She stopped and thought about it. She had questions about boyfriends and girlfriends now that she'd talked to Korra, but that felt like something she should probably keep between herself and Stiles, at least for now.]

I don't know. Most of my questions just pop up as I'm talking to people. You know?

Edited 2013-10-15 02:23 (UTC)

[ Wow, aren't you incredibly, incredibly sweet. ]

Yeah, I know. Couldn't help to ask.

[She still too confused about it all the form questions anyway...]

That's alright.

Maybe you could tell me more about where you guys come from? It sounds a lot different from my home.

Uh, sure. It's a small town. There's a lot of forest. Everything is pretty spread out...

Forest? Really? Stiles hadn't mentioned that. There's a lot of forest around my home, too.
